MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541122218 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 4, 2025, for 'multi-scale computational framework for lithium-ion battery electrode thermal analysis.'
Inventor(s) include Devansh Deepak Tamakuwala; Ishaan Rajesh Chhatlani; and Dr Shankar Raman Dhanushkodi.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method (100) for multi-scale computational framework analysis of lithium-ion battery electrodes. The method (100) performs density functional theory calculations on cathode materials including lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganese oxide, and lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide to determine electronic structure parameters including HOMO-LUMO energy gaps, bond lengths, and charge distributions. The method (100) generates electrochemical polarization curves using Butler-Volmer modeling incorporating activation overpotential, ohmic resistance, and mass transfer limitations. The method (100) performs thermal simulations using Multi-Scale Multi-Domain modeling to predict temperature distributions during battery operation. The method (100) correlates density functional theory-derived parameters with electrochemical model parameters including exchange current density and area-specific resistance. The method (100) integrates density functional theory calculations, polarization modeling, and thermal simulations to enable prediction of electrochemical performance and thermal stability across multiple length scales."
